Firearms: Source is a team based first person shooter, rooted in the traditions of the Firearms mod for Half-Life. Firearms: Source brings the best aspects of Firearms to the Source engine, and then takes them a step further. You'll see a host of familiar weapons and maps, but you'll find the streamlined game play to be faster, focusing on aggressive, skilled play. From nearly the moment you spawn you can expect to be engaged in furious action.

The video includes examples of
Reloading from ammoboxes
Sprinting, with weapon holster animation
Stamina, which is affected by sprinting and jumping
Territorial control point capping
Bleeding (bandaging is implemented but not shown)
First person death views
Different reload animations depending on whether or not the bolt is cocked
Momentum imparted to ragdolls on deaths by the angle of the killing shot
as well as the UZI, AK74 and the new arm model/texture.

They're not making a profit off it, so it's legal to use these sounds

It's a shame that they probably won't bring back the oldschool gameplay from earlier versions of Firearms. I really missed the "fun" factor that the newer versions put little emphasis on.

FA2 stole FA ip, not FA:S. FA:S has the blessing of the original FA team. =)
read: this
and: this

FA:S also mounts the CS:S .gcf, it doesn't distribute CS:S materials at all - more pointedly, it does not distribute CS:S sounds. These sounds are being used temporarily and may be replaced for the public beta.

As I understand it, they changed their name to Incursion mod because at the time the FA team did not want anyone using the FA name. We approached the FA team well after this incident and received their welcome to use the FA name. =)

some of the worst acting to show off the bleeding to death stuff ever. But meh it looks ok. Might want to get more media than a few seconds of shooting with variations of the hl2 smg though.

Ok why do people keep dragging up the situation of FA2 vs FA:S. It's not like either team is making profit. Both teams are creating nice looking work and both mods will be different and which one you choose to play is entirely up to you...At the end of the day it's a simple download, no money is involved and both teams are working their *** off to make an enjoyable game for the community to play. You will have two choices to choose from instead of being stuck with just one. For example if you play FA:S and you dislike the gameplay you can always give the FA2 mod a try and see which one suits your taste. All the problems which occured are in the past now, and all your doing by dragging up the past is destroying what could be the sequal to the Firearms mod.

Mike, it's because FA2 stole the work of another mod, namedly the original FA. If you don't think that's a big deal, then perhaps you should think about the harm that did to each of the FA developers. And if you don't think that's a big deal, perhaps you can consider what effect this would have on the mod community in general if stealing the work of other mods was commonplace and easily ignored. Do you think many people would want to contribute huge amount of their personal time? No, this is not something that I think people should ignore.

And yes i agree with Issa. I hope people will take the time to read the explanation:
here: Firearmsmod.com
and here: Fasforums.com

Some of these guys used 5 years to get the final version of FA (FA 3.0) It is sad that only so few people even know the truth about FA2 and the original FA.

Well Good Luck with FA:S models look nice indeed : )
